Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 978: Chapter 771: Seeking Help

After Su Yuan synchronized the current situation with Ashley, he asked Ashley to call in Mo Fei.

”Master!”

Su Yuan asked with a smile, ”Mo Fei, how have things been recently?”

Mo Fei replied with excitement, ”Recently, I’ve recruited quite a few at the Radiant Moon Level, and two of them are strong, able to last ten rounds under me!”

Mo Fei’s method of testing others’ strength was simple and straightforward — whether they could last three, five, or ten rounds under him.

”Oh? That’s indeed quite good.”

If one could last ten rounds under Mo Fei, they could basically go twenty or thirty rounds if the fight continued, making them experts even at the Full Moon Level.

Su Yuan scrutinized Mo Fei for a moment, nodding slightly, finding him quite settled.

Su Yuan turned his hand to take out two Alchemy Boxes and handed them to Mo Fei, ”Mo Fei, you don’t need to handle matters outside anymore. Take these two Elixirs and return to the Qingming Realm to attempt a breakthrough to the Burning Sun.”

Upon receiving the two Sun Spirit Pills, Mo Fei’s body trembled slightly.

”This... Master, are these Sun Spirit Pills?!”

Staring at the two Elixirs in his hand, Mo Fei naturally understood their value.

Even Miss Bing Tong only received two Sun Spirit Pills from the Master!

Su Yuan said, ”Your Full Moon Level accumulation isn’t yet at its peak, one to boost cultivation, the other for breakthrough.

If it’s not enough, it doesn’t matter; by then, there should be new Sun Spirit Pills produced.”

”They are enough!” Mo Fei quickly knelt, saying, ”Thank you, Master. Mo Fei will definitely break through with these two Sun Spirit Pills!”

Su Yuan helped him up, smiling, ”From now on, don’t kneel so easily. Currently, you’re my Guardian Beast, not my servant.

Besides, as a Legendary Qilin, you have infinite potential in the future; no one should make you kneel easily, not even me, understand?”

Mo Fei felt a slight tremor in his heart, looked up at Su Yuan, then stood and bowed deeply, ”Yes, Master! Mo Fei understands!”

Su Yuan nodded slightly and then started to ponder.

Yuantong Island is still under construction, so there’s no rush to check on it.

With Bing Tong and Antonios there, Su Yuan is quite at ease.

”Let’s return to the Qingming Realm first.”

With a flash of Silver Light around, Su Yuan brought Mo Fei back to the Qingming Realm.

As Mo Fei began his seclusion, Su Yuan also swallowed a Sun Spirit Pill and started refining it...

Great Flame, Capitol City.

Demon Soul had just delivered the intelligence personally written by Su Yuan to the Sky Patrol Department and obtained current movements of Great Flame and the East Continent from within.

However, Demon Soul’s return was not just for this task...

At this moment, Demon Soul identified directions and leaped toward the southern Capitol City.

Capitol Capital College, inside a certain café.

”Hmm? It’s Teacher Yang Aoshan!”

”Look, Teacher Yang actually came here for coffee?”

”...”

Amidst soft whispers, Yang Aoshan entered the café and soon spotted Demon Soul sitting in the corner, her face showing a hint of delight.

Demon Soul stood up and greeted, ”Teacher Yang.”

”Hello.” Yang Aoshan responded politely, sitting down and lowering her voice to ask, ”Where is he?”

Glancing around, more than half of the café’s students were curiously observing this side.

Feeling a bit emotional, Demon Soul noted that Yang Aoshan indeed had quite a bit of popularity...

Demon Soul raised a hand, and an invisible Star Power Barrier rose, directly isolating the sound.

”The main body is currently in the Western Desert.”

”Western Desert...” Yang Aoshan had never been to the Western Desert; in her impression, it was a scorching sandy land. ”Did he go to the Western Desert for a task?”

Demon Soul nodded, ”Please, Teacher Yang, keep what I say next confidential.”

Yang Aoshan nodded seriously, ”Yes, please go ahead. I won’t tell anyone.”

Demon Soul said slowly, ”Now that both land and beast calamities are occurring simultaneously, and it’s unclear how long they will last, the Northern grey realm poses a great threat. To fully focus on dealing with these threats later, it’s essential to eliminate other unstable factors while everything is relatively stable now.

Therefore, months ago, the main body received a task and went to the Western Desert.”

Yang Aoshan pondered, ”So that’s how it is. I did hear other teachers mention that Great Flame has been quite active in the Central Five Domains lately...”

”That’s correct, but that’s handled by other colleagues from the Sky Patrol Department.”

”Then why did Su Yuan go to the Western Desert?”

Demon Soul replied seriously, ”To reorganize the entire Western Desert and eliminate hidden threats on the western side.”

”Reorganize the entire Western Desert?” Yang Aoshan was taken aback and quickly asked, ”How is he now? As far as I know, the Western Desert seems to be a chaotic mix of dragons and fishes!”

The Demon Soul chuckled, ”Teacher Yang, there’s no need to worry. You’re familiar with my master’s capabilities. Recently, he has established a force and unified the various sea gangs along the Western Desert coast, which can be considered the first step accomplished.”

”Is that so...” Yang Aoshan breathed a slight sigh of relief, then his eyes showed admiration, ”In just a few months, he’s already consolidated some of the forces. Su Yuan is truly remarkable...”

The Demon Soul continued, ”However, the foundation of the coastal sea gangs is quite weak, and my master’s power is still under construction. Right now, we’re particularly short on personnel, especially those talented in the Four Arts.

My master sent me back to ask if you, Teacher Yang, would be willing to go to the Western Desert to lend a hand.”

”I am willing...”

Upon hearing this, Yang Aoshan was about to agree, but after a brief thought, he pursed his lips and lowered his head to stare at the table.

His hands were clasped tightly on the table, and beneath the table, his feet, encased in black stockings and short boots, rubbed together nervously, revealing his inner conflict.

For Yang Aoshan, the Western Desert was very far away, unfamiliar, and chaotic... but these weren’t the reasons for his turmoil.

Yang Aoshan’s dilemma was whether he should go.

Previously, according to Teacher Yang Yifeng, it seemed that he already had someone very close to him.

But the thought of that silver-eyed young man made Yang Aoshan feel irrational...

Soon after, Yang Aoshan took a deep breath, pretended to be calm, and nodded with a smile, ”Of course, I’d be happy to help... if he needs me.”

A close friend, a colleague in the Array Path? ... It could be anything; basically, he just wanted to go and was looking for an identity and an excuse.

Oh Yang Aoshan, you’re nearly thirty, yet you’re less rational than your younger students.

”Thank you very much, Teacher Yang,” the Demon Soul smiled.

Yang Aoshan asked, ”But I belong to Capitol Capital College, which is under the Flame Court Education Department...”

The Demon Soul chuckled, ”I’ve already pre-applied for coordination with the department; as long as you’re willing to go, it’s not a problem.”

Having made the decision to go, Yang Aoshan fully relaxed, his eyes showing a hint of anticipation, ”Shall we head to the Western Desert now?”

The Demon Soul said, ”Before that, we need to consult a high expert...”

Two days later, in the Demon Capital.

In front of the gate inscribed with the words ”Situ Mansion,” the Demon Soul gently knocked on the door.

Moments later, accompanied by rather light footsteps, a girl with a Qingmu hairpin and dressed in a daisy long dress opened the door.

Upon seeing the Demon Soul and Yang Aoshan outside, Situ Qingyin’s eyes showed a hint of wariness, ”May I ask who you two are...?”

The Demon Soul retained the same face from the Demon Sky Palace days, coupled with a rather unruly demeanor, making him look nothing like a good person.

If it weren’t for Yang Aoshan standing beside him, Situ Qingyin might have immediately shut the door out of fright.

”Hello, Miss Situ, we are here to visit Elder Situ Bai.”

As he spoke, a flash from the ring on the Demon Soul’s hand produced a bright silver long saber intertwined with green and purple patterns.

Even without infusing Star Power, the blade faintly resonated with wind and thunder, clearly a remarkable item!

”This saber looks so familiar...” Situ Qingyin frowned, scrutinizing the long saber, and after pondering, her eyes lit up, ”Is this the Gentle Wind Thunder Saber, Grandpa Yang’s Gentle Wind Thunder Saber!”

The Demon Soul grinned, ”Exactly, we were entrusted by Senior Yang to come here.”

Situ Qingyin no longer had any doubts, stepping aside and inviting them in, ”In that case, please come in.”

After seating them in the main hall, Situ Qingyin prepared tea for the Demon Soul and Yang Aoshan.

”Please take a rest; I’ll go call Grandpa.” Situ Qingyin winked at them and whispered with a smile, ”He’s still taking a nap in the attic~”

Yang Aoshan apologized with a smile, ”Is that so? Sorry to trouble you!”

”No worries, no worries.”

Soon, Situ Bai, accompanied by Situ Qingyin, arrived in the hall.

Upon seeing the Gentle Wind Thunder Saber on the table, Situ Bai’s gaze shifted to Yang Aoshan, his eyes showing a subtle change.

”Specially appointed Array Path Grandmaster of Capitol Capital College, Teacher Yang Aoshan?”

”Array Path Grandmaster?” Nearby, Situ Qingyin listened with wide eyes and her gaze towards Yang Aoshan was full of admiration, ”So... awesome!”

Yang Aoshan quickly responded humbly, ”Junior Yang Aoshan, I’ve long heard of Master Situ’s great reputation, and it’s an honor to visit today.”

Situ Bai laughed heartily, ”Teacher Yang achieving the level of Array Path Grandmaster at twenty-six or seven, it’s me who should feel honored meeting such a genius.”

”Senior Situ, you’re flattering me. There are many more talented than me...” Yang Aoshan immediately thought of Su Yuan and couldn’t help but shake his head with a smile.

Yet Su Yuan, as the Sky Patrol Imperial Envoy, had information mostly classified, seldom known to others.

As Yang Aoshan, a specially appointed teacher of Capitol Capital College, was naturally well-publicized.

Situ Bai then turned to the Demon Soul, examining him with admiration, ”It’s surprising... such an astonishing avatar!”

The Demon Soul was taken aback, ”I didn’t expect Senior to recognize it.”

Situ Bai laughed heartily, ”Having dealt with Star Devices all my life, the aura you possess is similar to an Artifact Spirit, subtle yet discernible to me.”

”As expected of Master Situ.” The Demon Soul grinned, his body flashed with eerie red light, transforming into a youthful appearance, though his eyes remained red.

”Su Yuan?!” Situ Qingyin exclaimed, then approached with surprise and joy, ”Su Yuan, it’s really you!”

Yang Aoshan’s expression slightly shifted, reassessing Situ Qingyin.

This pretty granddaughter of Master Situ... seems to know Su Yuan as well?
